Five hundred and sixty six cases of brain CT performed by a first generation scanner in a hospital were studied statistically. Postoperative and follow up scans were omitted. The number of cases increased with age up to 70 years, and then decreased. The rate of abnormal findings on CT image was as low as 10 percent under 40 years and increased with age over that. There was no difference between male and female. Cases with neurological deficits showed gradual increase in number with age and the highest positive rate on CT findings. Cases with mild symptoms such as headache, though the most numerous, showed deservedly the lowest positive rate. Therefore, cases with neurological deficits and ones over 40 years of age with any problem were thought to be good indications for CT scan. In cases under 40 years of age without neurological deficits, indications for CT scan should be examined sufficiently to exclude excessive test.
